Plain-English summary

Electra Meccanica Vehicles Corp. is recalling certain 2018 Solo G1 vehicles. The recall involves 16 units where the Federal Certification labels may be missing tire, rear wheel, and maximum allowable cargo information. Additionally, the maximum combined occupant and cargo weight may be incorrectly stated as higher than the actual maximum weight allows.

The missing and incorrect information may result in the incorrect tires being installed or the vehicle being overloaded. Both of these issues can increase the risk of a crash.

Electra Meccanica will notify owners, and dealers will replace the Federal Certification label free of charge. The recall began on April 8, 2019. Owners may contact Electra Meccanica customer service at 1-674-872-4747 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
